Default MSM Exocet "NO WAIT"

Currently [impatiently] awaiting the delivery of my kit from Exomotive.

I see the perfect time to clean paint the subframes and engine. What color chassis did you go with?

I've already cleaned (both power washer and scrub brush with Simple Green) the entire suspension. I reassembled things to the point you see here because I thought the chassis would be here sooner than later, but it looks like I have a bit of a wait still. I'm currently planning to disassemble it again to do the subframe and control arm painting. Budget won't let me powder coat; I've already spent too much.

Exocet is flat black, with my intent of going with red as my accent color (seeing as my valve cover, springs, and sway bar are already red). Sparco Sprints in black, red RaceQuip 6-pt harnesses. Figured I'd do the calipers in red too.

Oh, and I went with the naked chassis, no body panels. I forget who/what chassis # it is, but generally I'm aiming for this:
